A little history ...

The name derives from the name of Livry its founder, the Roman Liberius, where libariacum then livriacum.

In Gallo-Roman before the invasion of barbarians, there was a clearing in the forest of Bondy, a residence belonging to Liberius, liberacum land area. The oldest texts which make reference to livriacum from the 12th century. In the 12th century the town was officially renamed Livry Aulnoye because it covered a part of the forest of Bondy rich alder. At that time Stephen of Garland, lord of Livry built a mansion and surrounding walls of the village after the invasion and destruction of his castle. In 1200, donations from Philip Augustus allowed to found the Abbey of Our Lady of Livry. Among the abbots of Livry Figure Christophe de Coulanges, uncle and guardian of Mary Rabutin Chantal, became in 1644, Marquise de Sevigne. She made frequent visits to the abbey of Livry lot of letters are dated from this place. For her, "everything was laughing at Livry, air, greenery and even the rain. In 1880, Mr. Gargan, industrial Paris, developer of tank cars, bought land and built a factory giving birth to a new district which bore his name. On July 6, 1912 a ministerial decree associated with the name Livry Gargan to give the town its present name.
